Dog Trainer and Animal Lover!
Pet care experience
**PLEASE NOTE: New Clients: Requests will be accepted for April 1 and on 😊 I am currently not available on Wednesday’s 6-9pm or Sunday’s 12-3.** I’ve loved dogs and all other animals since I was a kid. I’ve always said that I was born loving them. I also became fascinated with obedience training dogs at a young age and would spend hours researching animal behavior. I trained my own German Shepherd and American Bulldog puppies when I was 14. Then, in 2018 I graduated as a certified dog trainer from Animal Behavior College. Between then and now, I’ve helped several family members and friends understand their dogs’ behavior and learn how to care for them in the best way possible. I cared for my senior pup’s needs during the last year of his life so I have some experience with administering medication and special needs. I recently gained a week’s experience caring for two adorable little bunnies, and am open to requests to care for them and other small animals. I have also owned a bearded dragon and a turtle, so I have experience handling reptiles and would love to care for yours too! I absolutely love any animal I meet and my focus is building connections with pets and their families. 💕 I’m confident that I’ll be the passionate and caring dog walker/pet sitter you need!
Reviews
Alyssa is on time, sweet, takes good pictures and leaves a detailed description of her time with George! We appreciate her!
Alyssa goes out of her way to make her visits with our puppy fun and engaging! I literally can’t believe how much play and training she packs into her visits. She’s always on time, sends great pictures and notes that make our day when we’re away from our pup. 5 stars-all gold!
Alyssa has been doing occasional drop-in visits for my pups for months now when I have long work days. She is always very communicative and sends me lots of cute pictures and videos of my animals in addition to updates each time. She’s great about checking in with any questions or concerns. Even my grumpy cat comes out to say hi when she stops by. I always know my animals will be in good hands with Alyssa!!
Alyssa is amazing and does such a great job with my puppies!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety is my priority. My dogs are in a fenced yard whenever they spend time outside at home and are either on-leash while out and about or off-leash in a fenced area. I make sure to take the same, if not more, safety precautions with your pets.
Information Alyssa S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or social triggers. I’ll be sure to stay consistent with any forms of training you are working on. If their background affects their behavior, I’d love to know more about it so I can make sure to take care of them the best way possible. I always love getting to know the story of how you adopted each other!
A typical day
I love finding new spots to walk around and explore; it’s so beautiful. I just moved here, so I’ll be getting to know the city more when walking your dogs! If allowed, I would love to take them to the dog parks in the area to get out all the wiggles!
